Police have laid charges against a man in relation to the homicide of Alexander Joseph Frederick Thomas that occurred last weekend in Dartmouth.

On November 13 at approximately 1:45 a.m. Halifax Regional Police responded to a report of an unresponsive man in a dwelling on Braeside Court in Dartmouth. Responding officers located a deceased man inside. The Nova Scotia Medical Examiner Service conducted an autopsy and ruled the manner of death to be a homicide.

Today, police have laid charges of second-degree murder against Tyreece Alexander Whynder-Ewing, 27, and have obtained a Canada-wide warrant for his arrest.

At this time, investigators believe this is not a random incident and they are not looking for any other suspects.

Police are asking anyone with information about Whynder-Ewing’s whereabouts to call police at 902-490-5020.

Our thoughts remain with Alexander’s family and friends on the loss of their loved one.
